I had surgery for a nail punture wound, on the top of my hand, and the surgery brought up a nodule, from the already existing cord I have. Now, I have a bad shoulder problem in the other arm, and I have to compensate by using the hand that has DP overtime. Since I have done that, now, I have a HUGE nodule on top of the cord, in that hand. And, now, pain. You can't tell me, that injurys and surgerys do not increase the risk of this becoming worse. Everything that has happened, has increased the DP . It is like clockwork. If somthing else happens ( and I raise horses) then, the DP takes off again, and progresses. I am waiting for the next step, when the contractions start, I will go to Dr. Eaton. Now, for the first time, I am feeling pain, since I got the nodule. I never felt it with the cord.

Patty,I get frozen shoulder when I carry my purse over shoulder or am at computer too long..I have found that going to chirpractor and getting massages helps shoulder alot. I have also noticed that if I pull weeds or overuse hands too much that seem to become inflamed....it seems as if something rushes in to fix a problem...Dr Eaton's site says DO NOT OVER USE HANDS...
